Abstract

Microplastic pollution has rapidly become one of the major global environmental concerns because of its low biodegradability rate and threat to biota. Although many treatment methods are reported, the advanced oxidation process (AOP) is recommended because of its capacity to completely mineralize organic pollutants into carbon dioxide and water. This review gathers published investigations on recent AOP techniques (UV/solar photolysis and photocatalysis (PC), UV/H2O2, Fenton reaction, sonolysis, heat‐activated persulphate and peroxymonosulphate) tested for the degradation of microplastics from water and wastewater. The review lists 54 studies, by far the most comprehensive collection on the AOP‐driven treatment of microplastics, and is also the first to explain the methods related to the ultrasonic degradation of microplastics. We found that all the reviewed AOP techniques achieved satisfying performance in the degradation of microplastics. This paper proposes recommendations for future research based on the review.

期刊介绍: Water and Environment Journal is an internationally recognised peer reviewed Journal for the dissemination of innovations and solutions focussed on enhancing water management best practice. Water and Environment Journal is available to over 12,000 institutions with a further 7,000 copies physically distributed to the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM) membership, comprised of environment sector professionals based across the value chain (utilities, consultancy, technology suppliers, regulators, government and NGOs). As such, the journal provides a conduit between academics and practitioners. We therefore particularly encourage contributions focussed at the interface between academia and industry, which deliver industrially impactful applied research underpinned by scientific evidence. We are keen to attract papers on a broad range of subjects including: -Water and wastewater treatment for agricultural, municipal and industrial applications -Sludge treatment including processing, storage and management -Water recycling -Urban and stormwater management -Integrated water management strategies -Water infrastructure and distribution -Climate change mitigation including management of impacts on agriculture, urban areas and infrastructure
